Hi
Curbon7 ... I was advised that it would likely take three months for my submission to be reviewed. It was reviewed in ~2 hours. I've been working on it for nearly six months and I've hewed very closely to Wikipedia's standards. There are, no doubt, improvements to be made, but I would respectfully ask the following:
1- How thoroughly was my page reviewed in about a 2-hour timeframe? There's approx. 20 pages of information (printed) as per my submission. This is curious.
2- I would kindly appreciate examples of your various critiques - and, to be sure, I welcome these opportunities to improve. But, in providing me firm examples, I could properly and effectively address the issues (and in a timely fashion).
Again, I ask these questions with respect.
Thank you (and Happy New Year!),

Hey
Curbon7! Just a quick update informing you that I've made many more changes, as per your recommendations. I believe the page looks substantially better, though I'm a bit partial. Again, I'm open to any additional advice/critiques, and humbly, I must admit that you were ultimately correct. Indeed, there was too much editorializing and far too many citations/references. I mean, there may still be instances where things aren't perfect, but I think I've made good progress. Thank you - truly! - for your help, guidance and encouragement. It's genuinely appreciated!

Hey
Curbon7... Welcome back! I hope all is well and no damage was done to your account.
When you're afforded the opportunity, could you let me know if you'll be the one reviewing the resubmission of my draft or is it more likely that it'll be undertaken by someone else? Thank you!
Kindly,

Hey Curbon7. I saw that you recently created Florida's 14th State House district. Do you plan on doing the rest of the districts for both Senate and House districts? I know someone who was making Senate districts for a couple of states who goes by the user name Blizzardwind, but he was taking a break from doing that.

Yangon Thu Michelle is an advocate for women empowerment who stands on her own feet. She produces her own videos, co-founded Myanmar Women’s Self Defense Center, and is a country lead for Myanmar in the Bangkok-based Wedu Global social enterprise. Her videos and interviews aim to support women in Myanmar and she does so with no expectations of benefits or rewards. This is why she is someone who should have a page on Wikipedia.
She does not focus on fame while endeavouring for women’s rights and human rights and her efforts have been documented in interviews and articles by various media outlets. In addition, we have added a citation where State-owned media has written about her work. Her wiki page was constructed based on these facts. Thus, we kindly request an AFC review to be conducted.
No doubt that there is reliable sources and well cited. Try to read Myanmar language, don't translate from google. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Burmese King ( talk • contribs) 08:31, 2 January 2021 (UTC)

Hi. My request on the article Draft:Church of San Pietro Apostolo was declined because of lack of sources. As suggested by you I added now another source. Unfortunately is a very small town and is difficult to find many sources. I did my best. The article I created is for a university project. Hope in your help. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mylene 97 ( talk • contribs) 11:14, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
Hello! Thanks for reviewing the draft page for Draft:Jeanette Davis (2) recently. I saw that you declined the page because Draft:Jeanette Davis already exists. I am a college professor and this semester my students did a project researching influential academics and writing wiki pages about them. My student wrote the Jeanette Davis (2) page and is trying to figure out the next steps. The Draft:Jeanette Davis page was declined due to not having enough sources, while Draft: Jeanette Davis (2) has substantially more sources and I think is much more likely to be considered a biography of a notable scientist. Can you let me know what the best next steps are? Should we transfer the text from Draft:Jeanette Davis (2) over to Draft:Jeanette Davis? At that point could it be reconsidered? I am also going to reach out to the editor who declined Draft:Jeanette Davis to ask for their preferred next steps. Thanks for any point in the right direction - I am new to wikipedia but excited to see Jeanette Davis represented in a biography. Thanks for your help! -- Csoconn ( talk) 22:57, 2 January 2021 (UTC)

Hey.
I noticed you have reviewed a few pages in your time at Wikipedia- I am a beginner to Wikipedia and have just finished writing my first article, now the draft is pending for review. It'd be great if you could check it over! I am apprehensive that it will contain mistakes and I will need to wait another few weeks/months before getting another review.

Hi, thanks for the feedback on the "Maël Péneau" page I published
I have some questions though, in order to understand why it's not admissible
1. The page is a translation from the french wikipedia, where it already exists (I also wrote the french version). Is it possible that one page is admissible in & language and not admissible in another ? https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ma%C3%ABl_P%C3%A9neau
2. Some of The criterias for music composers/performers (according to the guidelines) seem to apply :
- criteria #4 : Has received non-trivial coverage in independent reliable sources of an international concert tour, or a national concert tour in at least one sovereign country Source : http://stoneyroads.com/2014/03/bromance-records-tour-wrapping-up-with-louisahhh-maelstrom/
- criteria #10 : Has performed music for a work of media that is notable, e.g., a theme for a network television show, performance in a television show or notable film, inclusion on a notable compilation album, etc. Source : performance for ARTE TV (french/german national TV channel) https://www.arte.tv/fr/videos/087035-000-A/louisahhh-b2b-maelstrom-a-arte-mix-o-trabendo-2018/
- criteria #1 : Has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent of the musician or ensemble itself. here is some sources but there is more source 1 : https://mixmag.net/feature/june-2017-8-electro-releases-you-need-to-hear-this-month source 2 : https://ra.co/reviews/22763 source 3 : https://djmag.com/features/back-yours-maelstrom source 4 : https://inverted-audio.com/mix/maelstrom/
Could you please let me know as to why these criterias are not sufficient ?
Also, I found a number of similar pages related to techno producers and DJs (some with less relevant sources than the ones I used for this page) so I'm wondering why these pages have been deemed admissible but not the one I've submitted : - /info/en/?search=Silent_Servant - /info/en/?search=The_Hacker - /info/en/?search=DVS1 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aslan110 ( talk • contribs) 08:17, 14 January 2021 (UTC)

Hello. I would like your opinion on the article Algeria (disambiguation) which was mentioned for quick deletion.
Indeed, there is a big difference between the name of the state "Algeria" and the city of the capital "Algiers", and therefore there are two articles of disambiguation: Algiers (disambiguation) and Algeria (disambiguation).
I hope you will take this remark into consideration and make the necessary changes to maintain the article Algeria (disambiguation). Cordially. -- Kalimoun ( talk) 10:25, 13 January 2021 (UTC)
Thanks for your rapid response. I am puzzled, though, by your reasons.
My edit is a brief summary of an essay in today's New York Times on a topic related to recent news and Ms. Stewart's published book. So I think the source is both reliable and verifiable.
As for context, I was not sure whether to add the Stewart citation as a gloss on the existing citation to Hawley's Christianity Today article. If you think that summarizing Stewart's argument goes beyond the typical WP entry, then I would suggest simply adding her essay to footnote 154's citation of Kilgore's NY Times item from 2019 (which is quoted in the Hawley article in WP as follows: "Hawley wrote in a 2012 essay: 'Government serves Christ’s kingdom rule; this is its purpose. And Christians' purpose in politics should be to advance the kingdom of God — to make it more real, more tangible, more present.'").
I think that Stewart's essay provides further, updated context for Kilgore's quotation. Stewart's quotation is as "verifiable" as the quotation from Kilgore (indeed, they may be quoting from different sections of the same source). In any event, the information value to WP of adding further context to Kilgore can be met by simply citing her essay ("see also Katherine Stewart ...") without quoting her, particularly if you feel the quotations are redundant.

Hello Curbon7, thank you for your feedback regarding my very first article attempt. As you can see, I'm having some learning-curve issues - so thank you for your patience! I have added the reason that this person is notable - namely that he is one of the very few naval officers who served at least three years and thus is eligible for The Society of the Cincinnati. I'd appreciate any tips on how to get this article submission "right". I've included several secondary sources which mention his service.

Hello Dear @ Curbon7:, I am writing as the author of an article - Draft:Ako Akhalaia. I, myself, am One of the contributors and editors of Georgian Wikipedia. It’s been a while since my submitted article is in the drafts section. You say that person - Ako Akhalaia does not meet the recognition criteria, and the article needs additional resources. Fifteen certified links accompany the article. Here are the leading media agencies of Georgia, the Public Broadcaster, etc. He is Also the official Representative of the Cannes Lions Festival in Georgia + Publisher of Harvard Business Review. This person is the founder of the most popular Marketing magazine in Georgia. His awareness in this area is very high. You can quickly check and verify this. We want to make sure that he can be found in the English Wikipedia as well, so if you do not mind, please, review the article again and help us as colleagues publish the article.

Hello @ Curbon7:, I want to make Emiway Bantai. I tried once before to create an article Emiway Bantai (Indian rapper), but it was deleted, which probably would not have passed GNG at that time. Then I found a Machayenge article from Emiway on Wiki. When I checked that article, it turned out that it was created by CptViraj. He is also an NPR. When I talked to him about this, he said that he was previously associated with this subject. So now he does not want to make it. Then I saw their sandbox which was made to make User:CptViraj/sandbox/Emiway Bantai. Recently I have prepared an article on their sandbox. Therefore, I will ask you to review it. Since its main title is Protected by the Administrator, I will ask you to move it to Emiway. Must see once. Thank you 2402:3A80:10CA:7818:C024:C6CC:B8CC:5E1E ( talk) 10:18, 9 May 2021 (UTC)

It is to be noted that the article Thiyyar history that has created on 8th May, as there were 10 articles of the same topic has already been redirected to the main article Ezhava.

Yeah, it was one of the weirdest things I've read all day. The least abnormal thing about that whole page was the lead sentence "This article about events that happened to me, is written in a third-person narrative". After that, it was all "What is this (probable) blog like fiction?" the whole way down (and the "sourcing", egads). Regardless, it clearly failed "what Wikipedia is" and many other guidelines since it was an unverifiable personal account of an event in their personal life. Odd that you got the notification for it instead of the creator and I'm sorry for bothering you with it, but glad it gave you a chuckle. Zinnober9 ( talk) 06:16, 29 May 2021 (UTC)

Hey, thank you for contributing to the Raven Baxter page and talk. It's been frustrating beating back the promo/peacock language that was constantly being added, which had almost completely died down until apparently news of her earning her PhD spawned a new wave of pushing dubious qualifications. It also looks like some sources choose to closely paraphrase her personal website bio (like the Buffalo Rising piece that even kept her "molecular scientist" title...), which is unfortunate since it propagates self-marketing that shouldn't even be necessary for her field. We run into the same problem over and over of perpetuating credential inflation on so many science-adjacent bios...

I've pondered whether I should do the GA review for this, since I've read up enough on MTG to have a good enough understanding on what she's about to write this; however, the act of calling someone a "raving lunatic" (although I later redacted this, she doesn't make my blood boil like Trump) probably means I can't approach a review with a neutral point of view. Any thoughts? Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 15:46, 16 June 2021 (UTC)
You left a comment on my talkpage saying that information I added to 2022 United States Senate election in Florida was wrong, if the date of someone's term is specified (for ex. Donald Trump, 45th President of the United States (2017-2021)) then why would you write "Former" in the heading. Also if a former Governor, U.S. Representative, or Senator endorses a candidate generally on the endorsement it will say either the number of their term (for ex. In California my Governor Gavin Newsom is the 40th Governor of California) or it will say former in front of their name if they are a former Senator or U.S. Representative. There is never a seperate heading for Former U.S. Senators apart from U.S. Senators broadly. Also "Former Executive Branch Officials" isn't a real position while "Executive Branch Official", the former is an adjective that adds onto the position title. Can you please revert the edit and remove the notice you added to my talk page. Thanks. 73.70.228.14 ( talk) 08:41, 17 June 2021 (UTC)73.70.228.14

Draft:Judd Proctor
Dear Curbon7,
Thank you for reviewing my draft article on Judd Proctor, guitarist.
It's difficult to provide sources for a professional musician, as you may appreciate. Judd Proctor appeared on countless recordings - some of them big hits - and was a major British session-player in the 60s and 70s. Countless websites confirm his recordings and status, but there is no academic book which assesses his significance as such. An article was published about him in Pipeline, which is included in the references. There is no easy way of providing reliable sources of his music, TV and film work, other than to say what I've put in the article. Hudd Proctor did all the things included in the artivle but it is difficult to show this through academic or other articles.
Not sure what else to do if the revised version isn't acceptable. It wouldn't be appropriate that Judd Proctor should not have a wikipedia entry, which I'm sure many musicians would agree with.
The other thing would be to offer a comment on youtube references. In this case the reference is to a performance by Judd Proctor on guitar, supporting famous British comedian Spike Milligan in a duet. There's no other way to verify this other than to say Judd played the guitar then, and to ref the footage.
Thank you, Dingosmith Dingosmith 5000 ( talk) 12:02, 17 June 2021 (UTC)
Thank you for your prompt reply Curbon7, much appreciated. Having spent quite a bit of time drawing the obituary together it was as much a reflection of frustration at the lack of academic sources. I was a bit concerned that Wikipedia might decline to approve it for those reasons. Thank you for your help and reading the draft. Dingosmith 5000 ( talk) 10:58, 18 June 2021 (UTC)

Hi Curbon. I saw you moved
Draft:Florida Transgender Female Athletes Bill when you were reviewing it for AfC. I've got no problem with the move or your decline. I do have, however, a question about the "apostrophe" used in the new title. There's something odd about its syntax because
Draft:Fairness in Women’s Sports Act and
Draft:Fairness in Women's Sports Act should be the same but for some reason they're not and I think that has to do with the apostrophe. Your version looks like a it's using a
non-straight apostrophe or a
fullwidth apostrophe as opposed the the straight or halfwidth apostrophe that Wikipedia seems to prefer. Perhaps you were using a smart phone or tablet when you made the edit because I've noticed my iPhone uses fullwidth apostrophes by default when I edit. They look the same or really close to straight apostrophes in the article display mode which means they're fine for reading purposes, but they do impact link syntax when used in links. It might be easier to see what I mean if you look at the code: your version looks like Draft:Fairness in Women’s Sports Act
whereas a straight/halfwidth version looks like Draft:Fairness in Women's Sports Act
. It's the space between the apostrophe and the "s" that somehow affects the link syntax, which in turn might make linking to the draft a bit confusing. The fix seems to be fairly simple and probably all that's needed is another page move, but I just want to run this by you first because I'm not sure how or if that might affect how the page is entered on any AfC category or log pages. --

I'm just surprised. Mahnaz Malik being the youngest ever arbitrator appointed by the World Bank and also winning the UK Financial Times of the Year Award. That's beyond notable.
Also, I do not understand how the author of several books two of them published by Oxford University press is not notable. All sources are not self published but of third party sources and news.
Further she's been noted as a leading children's writer in other Wikipedia entries?
My question is what I do? It seems quite unfair that someone can reject on whimsical grounds.
Are the articles written about her in Wikipedia are not notable? Is that what you are saying.
Other articles can write about someone on Wikipedia and cite the person but the person whom they're citing isn't notable enough to have an article ? That does not make sense.
Please review it again. Your grounds are completely unjustified by what you've said. Njinfo10109 ( talk) 16:03, 23 June 2021 (UTC)

No, I do not represent anyone. I'm not a professional wikipedia editor as my articles show and merely write artcles for black women whose works I admire and want to bring to wider notice. I don't personally know these women although I follow some of them on twitter and like and retweet their tweets. I also know a friend of one of the women. The only thing all three articles I've written for wikipedia have in common is that they're black women in the creative industry who are making great strides against all odds. As such, I don't want their images messed up with by a devout fan as myself. Thank you — Preceding unsigned comment added by AFRICAN001 ( talk • contribs) 11:27, 28 June 2021 (UTC)

Hi Curbon7. Thanks for reviewing my submission and I have made some changes per your suggestion. It is my first time writing on wikipedia. I added many more citations to articles written about the living person I wrote a page on. I can see that generally speaking, IMDb may not be a valid source, however in the context of the citation, I believe they are. I cited them for the awards the living person has won and IMDb has a strict and extensive verification and accreditation process for awards; I encourage you to research IMDb accredited festivals. IMDb is one of few legitimate sources to verify awards filmmakers and Entertainment industry persons have won. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Douggybenton ( talk • contribs) 23:25, 30 June 2021 (UTC)

Hello! Thanks for reviewing the page I created for Kyle A. Thomas. I just wanted to ask about your interpretation of the academic notability standards, which you determined were not met. Based upon Wikipedia's 8 conditions for academic notability (of which only one must be met to pass the threshold of notability), Kyle A. Thomas meets the 8th point easily. He is the editor-in-chief for an international academic journal in his discipline. So, I'd like to ask why you did not see the article about him as meeting the standards of notability? Am I missing something? I'll also add that I understand the citation criteria wasn't the strongest and I'm working to remedy that. If you still have access to the draft of the article could you point out the citations that don't meet the standards of Wikipedia because, from what I can tell looking at other pages about academics, the citations are more robust than what I've seen. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Usesoap17 ( talk • contribs) 23:23, 15 July 2021 (UTC)

I've been involved in the GNIS cleanup since last year, and I've found a few ways to generally most efficiently handle the cleanup. PROD works well for the modern subdivisions that lack coverage, as those are generally fairly uncontroversial. Obvious non-communities that fail GNG can also be prodded, such as fords, railroad sidings with no associated community, and river landings. Anything controversial should go through AFD. A special case is if you have a bunch of very similar articles in the same county - see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Chaney Ranch, California for a bunch of ranches in California (+1 subdivision I would have left out) or Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Butzner Corner, Virginia (a bunch of named road junctions in Virginia) for bundled ones that work. Sometimes I'll take really blatant errors through AFD instead of PROD to preserve a discussion showing why GNIS/databases aren't good sources for this, such as Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Levee Spur, California or Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Fish Pond, Kentucky. Absolutely unidentifiable stuff comes up, too - Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Acodale, Virginia is one that went to AFD. Depending on how you feel about the unidentifiable ones, prod or AFD either works. Sometimes you run into hoaxes as well, like I'm pretty sure Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Stone Ridge, Maryland was at least partially.
Don't feel like you have to take the advice, but these are just some general thought of mine based on experience with this. You don't want to send stuff through PROD that maybe isn't quite noncontroversial, but it's also good to not overload AFD or people get burned out. I think there were over 100 in the geography delsort page for awhile last winter when some of us were processing a big batch of California ones mass-produced from a book the author misinterpreted.
As far as I can tell, there's a mess of these in most states. I think California, Idaho, and Iowa have been mostly processed, and Missouri, Kentucky, West Virginia, and Virginia have been partially done. Hog Farm Talk 04:23, 11 August 2021 (UTC)

Hello Curbon7,
Please join this discussion - there is increase in the abuse of Wikipedia and its processes by POV pushers, Paid Editors, and by holders of various user rights including Autopatrolled. Even our review systems themselves at AfC and NPR have been infiltrated. The good news is that detection is improving, but the downside is that it creates the need for a huge clean up - which of course adds to backlogs.
Copyright violations are also a serious issue. Most non-regular contributors do not understand why, and most of our Reviewers are not experts on copyright law - and can't be expected to be, but there is excellent, easy-to-follow advice on COPYVIO detection here.
At the time of the last newsletter (#25, December 2020) the backlog was only just over 2,000 articles. New Page Review is an official system. It's the only firewall against the inclusion of new, improper pages.
There are currently 706 New Page Reviewers plus a further 1,080 admins, but as much as nearly 90% of the patrolling is still being done by around only the 20 or so most regular patrollers.
If you are no longer very active on Wikipedia or you no longer wish to be part of the New Page Reviewer user group, please consider asking any admin to remove you from the list. This will enable NPP to have a better overview of its performance and what improvements need to be made to the process or its software.
Various awards are due to be allocated by the end of the year and barnstars are overdue. If you would like to manage this, please let us know. Indeed, if you are interested in coordinating NPR, it does not involve much time and the tasks are described here.

Hi Curbon7,
I appreciated your review of my article for submission. When it was declined you mentioned a lack of reliable sources and proof of notability. I am of course aware that I only cited one source, which was Forbes. However, I think there is precedent for this style of List article, directly based off a reputable financial source, similar to the List of wealthiest Americans by net worth, Forbes list of The World's 100 Most Powerful Women, and 6 other lists published annually by a different magazine, Fortune, all of which have articles on Wikipedia ( See list).
Since there's such a strong case of precedent, what do you think about including the 100 Largest US Charities on Wikipedia as well?

Hi, I see you removed PROD tag I added on two articles i.e. Capture of Delhi (1753) and Battle of Sikandra. I just wanted to say that I thoroughly read references provided on the article page and many books for further reference. And I didn't find a single reference of said events specially Capture of Delhi page which I think completely different story altogether. See the talk page of these articles and also see my talk page where I explained in detailed about the said articles. And it is unfortunate that without any apparent reason, you removed tag from both these pages. I hope you should help us fight vandalism and hoaxes rather than defending them. I think I will go for WP:AFD after a few days when I will not be busy as its gonna be a little tedious process comapred to WP:PROD which you declined. In the meantime if you could help me to get truth of these articles than it would be appreciated specially cross-checking the sources and see if the article of Capture of Delhi (1753) has any citation/reference of capturing the city by belligerent Jats or article of Battle of Sikandra has any citation of any actual battle and not just looting of a tomb.

Hi Curbon7, I hope all is well. Thank you very kindly for reviewing the deletion proposal of Chanto. This is my first time identifying and submitting such a request, and while I attempted to look for credible sources prior, I was unsuccessful. With the article being tagged for not meeting the general notability guidelines for over nine years, if there are credible sources in other languages that you’ve identified, I’d be happy to partner with you in developing the article further to ensure it is better reflected. I hope my suggestion is not too unconventional, and because you have more expertise within the platform than I do, I’d be happy to be guided by you in the process.

Hello, Curbon7,
Your User page shows up as a pink link in my browser window which, with the scripts I use, typically means that it is a page that has been tagged for deletion. But I looked it over and don't see a transcluded speedy deletion tag on it. The page also shows that it is in the hidden category Category:Miscellaneous pages for deletion which I can't seem to remove. So, there might be a CSD tag somewhere in there but I can't find the tag to remove it. I don't think you have to worry about your User page being deleted, I thought I'd mention it to you in case you could figure it out. Thanks. Liz Read! Talk! 19:11, 22 October 2021 (UTC)

Come from here you aren’t wrong when you say applying BLProd ought to have been the right way, & yes I understand you, you are going by the NPP flowchart, which is good, but the problem with the flowchart is that the theoretical bureaucracy sometimes complicates what ought to be rather straightforward. prods are easily the most inutile method of deletion, more often than not & statistically speaking we almost always need to circle back to AFD, after prodding which we could have used from the inception. At some point I checked the number of people with the NPR flag & I saw over 700 people with the perm using a tool I checked the list of the most active reviewers, after which I did a feasibility study & I noted that less than 1% of the most active reviewers use prodding.

Hello Curbon7, and thanks for patrolling new pages!

I draftified because there is a chance on notability, but the current sourcing is not reliable (mostly stat pages, college newspaper articles and recruiting profiles) and that way the article can be improved without threat of deletion.

Hi
Curbon7 ... I was advised that it would likely take three months for my submission to be reviewed. It was reviewed in ~2 hours. I've been working on it for nearly six months and I've hewed very closely to Wikipedia's standards. There are, no doubt, improvements to be made, but I would respectfully ask the following:
1- How thoroughly was my page reviewed in about a 2-hour timeframe? There's approx. 20 pages of information (printed) as per my submission. This is curious.
2- I would kindly appreciate examples of your various critiques - and, to be sure, I welcome these opportunities to improve. But, in providing me firm examples, I could properly and effectively address the issues (and in a timely fashion).
Again, I ask these questions with respect.
Thank you (and Happy New Year!),

Hey
Curbon7! Just a quick update informing you that I've made many more changes, as per your recommendations. I believe the page looks substantially better, though I'm a bit partial. Again, I'm open to any additional advice/critiques, and humbly, I must admit that you were ultimately correct. Indeed, there was too much editorializing and far too many citations/references. I mean, there may still be instances where things aren't perfect, but I think I've made good progress. Thank you - truly! - for your help, guidance and encouragement. It's genuinely appreciated!

Yangon Thu Michelle is an advocate for women empowerment who stands on her own feet. She produces her own videos, co-founded Myanmar Women’s Self Defense Center, and is a country lead for Myanmar in the Bangkok-based Wedu Global social enterprise. Her videos and interviews aim to support women in Myanmar and she does so with no expectations of benefits or rewards. This is why she is someone who should have a page on Wikipedia.
She does not focus on fame while endeavouring for women’s rights and human rights and her efforts have been documented in interviews and articles by various media outlets. In addition, we have added a citation where State-owned media has written about her work. Her wiki page was constructed based on these facts. Thus, we kindly request an AFC review to be conducted.

Hello! Thanks for reviewing the draft page for Draft:Jeanette Davis (2) recently. I saw that you declined the page because Draft:Jeanette Davis already exists. I am a college professor and this semester my students did a project researching influential academics and writing wiki pages about them. My student wrote the Jeanette Davis (2) page and is trying to figure out the next steps. The Draft:Jeanette Davis page was declined due to not having enough sources, while Draft: Jeanette Davis (2) has substantially more sources and I think is much more likely to be considered a biography of a notable scientist. Can you let me know what the best next steps are? Should we transfer the text from Draft:Jeanette Davis (2) over to Draft:Jeanette Davis? At that point could it be reconsidered? I am also going to reach out to the editor who declined Draft:Jeanette Davis to ask for their preferred next steps. Thanks for any point in the right direction - I am new to wikipedia but excited to see Jeanette Davis represented in a biography. Thanks for your help! -- Csoconn ( talk) 22:57, 2 January 2021 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for the feedback on the "Maël Péneau" page I published
I have some questions though, in order to understand why it's not admissible
1. The page is a translation from the french wikipedia, where it already exists (I also wrote the french version). Is it possible that one page is admissible in & language and not admissible in another ? https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ma%C3%ABl_P%C3%A9neau
2. Some of The criterias for music composers/performers (according to the guidelines) seem to apply :
- criteria #4 : Has received non-trivial coverage in independent reliable sources of an international concert tour, or a national concert tour in at least one sovereign country Source : http://stoneyroads.com/2014/03/bromance-records-tour-wrapping-up-with-louisahhh-maelstrom/
- criteria #10 : Has performed music for a work of media that is notable, e.g., a theme for a network television show, performance in a television show or notable film, inclusion on a notable compilation album, etc. Source : performance for ARTE TV (french/german national TV channel) https://www.arte.tv/fr/videos/087035-000-A/louisahhh-b2b-maelstrom-a-arte-mix-o-trabendo-2018/
- criteria #1 : Has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent of the musician or ensemble itself. here is some sources but there is more source 1 : https://mixmag.net/feature/june-2017-8-electro-releases-you-need-to-hear-this-month source 2 : https://ra.co/reviews/22763 source 3 : https://djmag.com/features/back-yours-maelstrom source 4 : https://inverted-audio.com/mix/maelstrom/
Could you please let me know as to why these criterias are not sufficient ?
Also, I found a number of similar pages related to techno producers and DJs (some with less relevant sources than the ones I used for this page) so I'm wondering why these pages have been deemed admissible but not the one I've submitted : - /info/en/?search=Silent_Servant - /info/en/?search=The_Hacker - /info/en/?search=DVS1 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aslan110 ( talk • contribs) 08:17, 14 January 2021 (UTC)

Hello. I would like your opinion on the article Algeria (disambiguation) which was mentioned for quick deletion.
Indeed, there is a big difference between the name of the state "Algeria" and the city of the capital "Algiers", and therefore there are two articles of disambiguation: Algiers (disambiguation) and Algeria (disambiguation).
I hope you will take this remark into consideration and make the necessary changes to maintain the article Algeria (disambiguation). Cordially. -- Kalimoun ( talk) 10:25, 13 January 2021 (UTC)
Thanks for your rapid response. I am puzzled, though, by your reasons.
My edit is a brief summary of an essay in today's New York Times on a topic related to recent news and Ms. Stewart's published book. So I think the source is both reliable and verifiable.
As for context, I was not sure whether to add the Stewart citation as a gloss on the existing citation to Hawley's Christianity Today article. If you think that summarizing Stewart's argument goes beyond the typical WP entry, then I would suggest simply adding her essay to footnote 154's citation of Kilgore's NY Times item from 2019 (which is quoted in the Hawley article in WP as follows: "Hawley wrote in a 2012 essay: 'Government serves Christ’s kingdom rule; this is its purpose. And Christians' purpose in politics should be to advance the kingdom of God — to make it more real, more tangible, more present.'").
I think that Stewart's essay provides further, updated context for Kilgore's quotation. Stewart's quotation is as "verifiable" as the quotation from Kilgore (indeed, they may be quoting from different sections of the same source). In any event, the information value to WP of adding further context to Kilgore can be met by simply citing her essay ("see also Katherine Stewart ...") without quoting her, particularly if you feel the quotations are redundant.

Hello @ Curbon7:, I want to make Emiway Bantai. I tried once before to create an article Emiway Bantai (Indian rapper), but it was deleted, which probably would not have passed GNG at that time. Then I found a Machayenge article from Emiway on Wiki. When I checked that article, it turned out that it was created by CptViraj. He is also an NPR. When I talked to him about this, he said that he was previously associated with this subject. So now he does not want to make it. Then I saw their sandbox which was made to make User:CptViraj/sandbox/Emiway Bantai. Recently I have prepared an article on their sandbox. Therefore, I will ask you to review it. Since its main title is Protected by the Administrator, I will ask you to move it to Emiway. Must see once. Thank you 2402:3A80:10CA:7818:C024:C6CC:B8CC:5E1E ( talk) 10:18, 9 May 2021 (UTC)

Yeah, it was one of the weirdest things I've read all day. The least abnormal thing about that whole page was the lead sentence "This article about events that happened to me, is written in a third-person narrative".

Hey, thank you for contributing to the Raven Baxter page and talk. It's been frustrating beating back the promo/peacock language that was constantly being added, which had almost completely died down until apparently news of her earning her PhD spawned a new wave of pushing dubious qualifications. It also looks like some sources choose to closely paraphrase her personal website bio (like the Buffalo Rising piece that even kept her "molecular scientist" title...), which is unfortunate since it propagates self-marketing that shouldn't even be necessary for her field. We run into the same problem over and over of perpetuating credential inflation on so many science-adjacent bios...

I've pondered whether I should do the GA review for this, since I've read up enough on MTG to have a good enough understanding on what she's about to write this; however, the act of calling someone a "raving lunatic" (although I later redacted this, she doesn't make my blood boil like Trump) probably means I can't approach a review with a neutral point of view.

You left a comment on my talkpage saying that information I added to 2022 United States Senate election in Florida was wrong, if the date of someone's term is specified (for ex. Donald Trump, 45th President of the United States (2017-2021)) then why would you write "Former" in the heading. Also if a former Governor, U.S. Representative, or Senator endorses a candidate generally on the endorsement it will say either the number of their term (for ex. In California my Governor Gavin Newsom is the 40th Governor of California) or it will say former in front of their name if they are a former Senator or U.S. Representative. There is never a seperate heading for Former U.S. Senators apart from U.S. Senators broadly. Also "Former Executive Branch Officials" isn't a real position while "Executive Branch Official", the former is an adjective that adds onto the position title. Can you please revert the edit and remove the notice you added to my talk page. Thanks. 73.70.228.14 ( talk) 08:41, 17 June 2021 (UTC)73.70.228.14

Draft:Judd Proctor
Dear Curbon7,
Thank you for reviewing my draft article on Judd Proctor, guitarist.
It's difficult to provide sources for a professional musician, as you may appreciate. Judd Proctor appeared on countless recordings - some of them big hits - and was a major British session-player in the 60s and 70s. Countless websites confirm his recordings and status, but there is no academic book which assesses his significance as such. An article was published about him in Pipeline, which is included in the references. There is no easy way of providing reliable sources of his music, TV and film work, other than to say what I've put in the article. Hudd Proctor did all the things included in the artivle but it is difficult to show this through academic or other articles.
Not sure what else to do if the revised version isn't acceptable. It wouldn't be appropriate that Judd Proctor should not have a wikipedia entry, which I'm sure many musicians would agree with.
The other thing would be to offer a comment on youtube references. In this case the reference is to a performance by Judd Proctor on guitar, supporting famous British comedian Spike Milligan in a duet. There's no other way to verify this other than to say Judd played the guitar then, and to ref the footage.
Thank you, Dingosmith Dingosmith 5000 ( talk) 12:02, 17 June 2021 (UTC)
Thank you for your prompt reply Curbon7, much appreciated. Having spent quite a bit of time drawing the obituary together it was as much a reflection of frustration at the lack of academic sources.

Does this draft have a problem? /info/en/?search=Draft:BitMe ItsJustdancefan ( talk) 15:52, 18 June 2021 (UTC)
Hi Curbon. I saw you moved
Draft:Florida Transgender Female Athletes Bill when you were reviewing it for AfC. I've got no problem with the move or your decline. I do have, however, a question about the "apostrophe" used in the new title. There's something odd about its syntax because
Draft:Fairness in Women’s Sports Act and
Draft:Fairness in Women's Sports Act should be the same but for some reason they're not and I think that has to do with the apostrophe. Your version looks like a it's using a
non-straight apostrophe or a
fullwidth apostrophe as opposed the the straight or halfwidth apostrophe that Wikipedia seems to prefer. Perhaps you were using a smart phone or tablet when you made the edit because I've noticed my iPhone uses fullwidth apostrophes by default when I edit. They look the same or really close to straight apostrophes in the article display mode which means they're fine for reading purposes, but they do impact link syntax when used in links. It might be easier to see what I mean if you look at the code: your version looks like Draft:Fairness in Women’s Sports Act
whereas a straight/halfwidth version looks like Draft:Fairness in Women's Sports Act
. It's the space between the apostrophe and the "s" that somehow affects the link syntax, which in turn might make linking to the draft a bit confusing. The fix seems to be fairly simple and probably all that's needed is another page move, but I just want to run this by you first because I'm not sure how or if that might affect how the page is entered on any AfC category or log pages. --

I'm just surprised. Mahnaz Malik being the youngest ever arbitrator appointed by the World Bank and also winning the UK Financial Times of the Year Award. That's beyond notable.
Also, I do not understand how the author of several books two of them published by Oxford University press is not notable. All sources are not self published but of third party sources and news.
Further she's been noted as a leading children's writer in other Wikipedia entries?
My question is what I do? It seems quite unfair that someone can reject on whimsical grounds.
Are the articles written about her in Wikipedia are not notable? Is that what you are saying.
Other articles can write about someone on Wikipedia and cite the person but the person whom they're citing isn't notable enough to have an article ? That does not make sense.

I don't personally know these women although I follow some of them on twitter and like and retweet their tweets. I also know a friend of one of the women. The only thing all three articles I've written for wikipedia have in common is that they're black women in the creative industry who are making great strides against all odds.

Hi Curbon7. Thanks for reviewing my submission and I have made some changes per your suggestion. It is my first time writing on wikipedia. I added many more citations to articles written about the living person I wrote a page on. I can see that generally speaking, IMDb may not be a valid source, however in the context of the citation, I believe they are. I cited them for the awards the living person has won and IMDb has a strict and extensive verification and accreditation process for awards; I encourage you to research IMDb accredited festivals. IMDb is one of few legitimate sources to verify awards filmmakers and Entertainment industry persons have won. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Douggybenton ( talk • contribs) 23:25, 30 June 2021 (UTC)

Hello! Thanks for reviewing the page I created for Kyle A. Thomas. I just wanted to ask about your interpretation of the academic notability standards, which you determined were not met. Based upon Wikipedia's 8 conditions for academic notability (of which only one must be met to pass the threshold of notability), Kyle A. Thomas meets the 8th point easily. He is the editor-in-chief for an international academic journal in his discipline. So, I'd like to ask why you did not see the article about him as meeting the standards of notability? Am I missing something? I'll also add that I understand the citation criteria wasn't the strongest and I'm working to remedy that. If you still have access to the draft of the article could you point out the citations that don't meet the standards of Wikipedia because, from what I can tell looking at other pages about academics, the citations are more robust than what I've seen.

I've been involved in the GNIS cleanup since last year, and I've found a few ways to generally most efficiently handle the cleanup. PROD works well for the modern subdivisions that lack coverage, as those are generally fairly uncontroversial. Obvious non-communities that fail GNG can also be prodded, such as fords, railroad sidings with no associated community, and river landings. Anything controversial should go through AFD. A special case is if you have a bunch of very similar articles in the same county - see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Chaney Ranch, California for a bunch of ranches in California (+1 subdivision I would have left out) or Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Butzner Corner, Virginia (a bunch of named road junctions in Virginia) for bundled ones that work. Sometimes I'll take really blatant errors through AFD instead of PROD to preserve a discussion showing why GNIS/databases aren't good sources for this, such as Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Levee Spur, California or Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Fish Pond, Kentucky. Absolutely unidentifiable stuff comes up, too - Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Acodale, Virginia is one that went to AFD. Depending on how you feel about the unidentifiable ones, prod or AFD either works. Sometimes you run into hoaxes as well, like I'm pretty sure Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Stone Ridge, Maryland was at least partially.
Don't feel like you have to take the advice, but these are just some general thought of mine based on experience with this. You don't want to send stuff through PROD that maybe isn't quite noncontroversial, but it's also good to not overload AFD or people get burned out. I think there were over 100 in the geography delsort page for awhile last winter when some of us were processing a big batch of California ones mass-produced from a book the author misinterpreted.
As far as I can tell, there's a mess of these in most states. I think California, Idaho, and Iowa have been mostly processed, and Missouri, Kentucky, West Virginia, and Virginia have been partially done. Hog Farm Talk 04:23, 11 August 2021 (UTC)

Hello Curbon7,
Please join this discussion - there is increase in the abuse of Wikipedia and its processes by POV pushers, Paid Editors, and by holders of various user rights including Autopatrolled. Even our review systems themselves at AfC and NPR have been infiltrated. The good news is that detection is improving, but the downside is that it creates the need for a huge clean up - which of course adds to backlogs.
Copyright violations are also a serious issue. Most non-regular contributors do not understand why, and most of our Reviewers are not experts on copyright law - and can't be expected to be, but there is excellent, easy-to-follow advice on COPYVIO detection here.
At the time of the last newsletter (#25, December 2020) the backlog was only just over 2,000 articles. New Page Review is an official system. It's the only firewall against the inclusion of new, improper pages.
There are currently 706 New Page Reviewers plus a further 1,080 admins, but as much as nearly 90% of the patrolling is still being done by around only the 20 or so most regular patrollers.
If you are no longer very active on Wikipedia or you no longer wish to be part of the New Page Reviewer user group, please consider asking any admin to remove you from the list. This will enable NPP to have a better overview of its performance and what improvements need to be made to the process or its software.
Various awards are due to be allocated by the end of the year and barnstars are overdue. If you would like to manage this, please let us know. Indeed, if you are interested in coordinating NPR, it does not involve much time and the tasks are described here.

While I agree that those four pages should be deleted, a related issue is the lack of transparency into the choice lists for deletion sorting. See WP:Deletion Sorting Deletion Issue. Robert McClenon ( talk) 02:53, 28 September 2021 (UTC)
Hello, I have added new citations to the page I was creating from 3 different independent sources. Can you please review it again. /info/en/?search=Draft:George_Cervantes Thank you! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Marcorubiocali ( talk • contribs) 18:51, 6 October 2021 (UTC)
Hi Curbon7,
I appreciated your review of my article for submission. When it was declined you mentioned a lack of reliable sources and proof of notability. I am of course aware that I only cited one source, which was Forbes. However, I think there is precedent for this style of List article, directly based off a reputable financial source, similar to the List of wealthiest Americans by net worth, Forbes list of The World's 100 Most Powerful Women, and 6 other lists published annually by a different magazine, Fortune, all of which have articles on Wikipedia ( See list).
Since there's such a strong case of precedent, what do you think about including the 100 Largest US Charities on Wikipedia as well?

Why is it that you feel an article filled with sources from the subject should not be deleted? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.92.48.129 ( talk) 21:41, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
Please explain why you think the deletion tag for Mediatisation was invalid. It was made in good faith and in agreement with previous comments. I think that your action requires an explanation on the talk page. If you think there was a formal error in the rationale, it could probably have been fixed in a more helpful way.

Hi, I see you removed PROD tag I added on two articles i.e. Capture of Delhi (1753) and Battle of Sikandra. I just wanted to say that I thoroughly read references provided on the article page and many books for further reference. And I didn't find a single reference of said events specially Capture of Delhi page which I think completely different story altogether. See the talk page of these articles and also see my talk page where I explained in detailed about the said articles. And it is unfortunate that without any apparent reason, you removed tag from both these pages. I hope you should help us fight vandalism and hoaxes rather than defending them. I think I will go for WP:AFD after a few days when I will not be busy as its gonna be a little tedious process comapred to WP:PROD which you declined. In the meantime if you could help me to get truth of these articles than it would be appreciated specially cross-checking the sources and see if the article of Capture of Delhi (1753) has any citation/reference of capturing the city by belligerent Jats or article of Battle of Sikandra has any citation of any actual battle and not just looting of a tomb. Thanks in advance. Hiensrt ( talk) 18:53, 14 October 2021 (UTC)
Hi Curbon7, I hope all is well. Thank you very kindly for reviewing the deletion proposal of Chanto. This is my first time identifying and submitting such a request, and while I attempted to look for credible sources prior, I was unsuccessful. With the article being tagged for not meeting the general notability guidelines for over nine years, if there are credible sources in other languages that you’ve identified, I’d be happy to partner with you in developing the article further to ensure it is better reflected. I hope my suggestion is not too unconventional, and because you have more expertise within the platform than I do, I’d be happy to be guided by you in the process. I’m looking forward to your thoughts, and wishing you a wonderful day. Journey of Learning ( talk) 03:45, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
Hello, Curbon7,
Your User page shows up as a pink link in my browser window which, with the scripts I use, typically means that it is a page that has been tagged for deletion. But I looked it over and don't see a transcluded speedy deletion tag on it. The page also shows that it is in the hidden category Category:Miscellaneous pages for deletion which I can't seem to remove. So, there might be a CSD tag somewhere in there but I can't find the tag to remove it. I don't think you have to worry about your User page being deleted, I thought I'd mention it to you in case you could figure it out. Thanks. Liz Read! Talk! 19:11, 22 October 2021 (UTC)

I'm sorry to hear my article entry of the above title has been rejected. The reason cited was the absence of a reliable source. The source that I referred to was the BBC.

Hi there, I saw you made edits on the page for Dr. Ghosh. I was hoping you could help me fix the title page - his name is misspelled as Gosh instead of Ghosh.

Hi, could you please elaborate on why you removed my PROD on this article? As I mentioned, BEFORE searches returned absolutely no reliable sources. And the article concerns a state level administrative agency that doesn't appear to play a particularly significant role. So I'd appreciate it if you could elaborate on why you think this agency is notable or if there's something I'm missing here. Thanks! DocFreeman24 ( talk) 05:42, 6 November 2021 (UTC)
Hello, Curbon7. Your account has been granted the "extendedmover" user right, either following a request for it or demonstrating familiarity with working with article names and moving pages. You are now able to rename pages without leaving behind a redirect, move subpages when moving the parent page(s), and move category pages.
Please take a moment to review
Wikipedia:Page mover for more information on this user right, especially
the criteria for moving pages without leaving redirect. Please remember to follow
post-move cleanup procedures and make link corrections where necessary, including broken double-redirects when suppressredirect
is used. This can be done using
Special:WhatLinksHere. It is also very important that no one else be allowed to access your account, so you should consider taking a few moments to
secure your password. As with all user rights, be aware that if abused, or used in controversial ways without consensus, your page mover status
can be revoked.

If you do not want the page mover right anymore, just let me know, and I'll remove it. Thank you, and happy editing! Seddon talk 23:18, 14 November 2021 (UTC)

Come from here you aren’t wrong when you say applying BLProd ought to have been the right way, & yes I understand you, you are going by the NPP flowchart, which is good, but the problem with the flowchart is that the theoretical bureaucracy sometimes complicates what ought to be rather straightforward. prods are easily the most inutile method of deletion, more often than not & statistically speaking we almost always need to circle back to AFD, after prodding which we could have used from the inception. At some point I checked the number of people with the NPR flag & I saw over 700 people with the perm using a tool I checked the list of the most active reviewers, after which I did a feasibility study & I noted that less than 1% of the most active reviewers use prodding.

Hello Curbon7, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Anwar Shah Orakzai, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: A Reporters Without Borders profile for this journalist would appear sufficient enough to avoid outright WP:A7 deletion. WP:JOURNALIST, WP:GNG , WP:ANYBIO may still be applied . You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you. Shirt58 ( talk) 10:31, 9 December 2021 (UTC)
Hello @ Curbon7 - Thank you for reviewing my work in progress of the article - Raza Sahib - I see you have redirected it to Chanda Sahib accidentally maybe ? Chanda Sahib is the father and Raza Sahib is the son - So I think this redirect is probably invalid - On account of this I am undoing the redirect - and if you would disagree maybe, I would appreciate if you could maybe explain the rationale. Thank you again for the time and help!

You moved Moulvibazar Government High School to draft space twice. Between your two moves, the author had moved it back to article space, so your second move is controversial and I've reverted it.

I draftified because there is a chance on notability, but the current sourcing is not reliable (mostly stat pages, college newspaper articles and recruiting profiles) and that way the article can be improved without threat of deletion.
